Gems of Stradus

1983 1 Players Not Rated

Within a large maze lies a trove of treasure – the Gems of Stradus – and you have decided to venture into this labyrinth in a quest to find the treasure and become fabulously rich. The game is played like a text adventure in some aspects; you navigate the maze using the cursor keys, but if you want to pick up an object that’s lying on the ground, unlock a door or use an object that’s in your possession, you need to type in the appropriate command. The graphics are very basic indeed, although the game itself is written entirely in BASIC, and considering it was released very early in the CPC’s life, it’s understandable. In a house of a thousand and one rooms, find your way and find a fabulous treasure hidden somewhere. Everything would be too easy if multiple traps were not set for you and if dangers did not await you behind every door. If you fail, you are sent back to the starting point with one right: to start over...
